[@julesf.meloborges811]

​@@Ivar_Mennes_ That's not "how it was back then". You obviously haven't watched many old trailers. Some of them would often give everything alway to convince you. The modern trailer we know now (And you don't seem to like it) started out in the '80s. Some exceptions are made with Thrillers and mystery films. Part of the "Don't spoil the end" policy, I guess.

D_m, don't say that...cause that means I've aged too.

[@jerryrichardson2799]

What gets me about this movie is they changed the first part of it. I saw it at the theater when it first came out, and there's a scene where Air Force One is flown into the Chrysler building, the President ejects in "the pod" right before that happens. The scene showing the plane crashing into the Chrysler building has been taken out, why? Why did the movie producer decide to take it out later? A request from the CIA or FBI after 9/11? What's the story behind the change?

[@cageshowproductions7212]

I think you may have a point there. It's actually kind of eerie seeing the twin towers in this movie, as plane heads towards downtown New York.

[@gabrielserrano5054]

David Rockefeller built those building planned demolition to invade the middle east for oil. New Yorkers knew it since the 1930s-60s so they protested the Rockefeller family from the false flag until David Rockefeller bought out the new jersey port authority. It's a miracle 9/11 didn't happen sooner also the government helped to cover It up for patriot act dictatorship powers.

[@mitchellneu]

Maybe its just me, but this is the closest we will ever get to Kurt Russell as Solid Snake and/or Big Boss in a Metal Gear Solid movie. Think about it: he has an eye patch(like Big Boss), his name is Snake, and his last name is Pliskin(ended up as a codename Snake used in MGS2: Sons of Liberty. Coincidence? I think not!

[@michaszeremeta4745]

maybe, bro.

[@Trickytreater]

Kojima was inspired by the film and used nods in the Metal Gear franchise as an homage to Escape from New York. So yes you’re quite right, although it’s more like, Metal Gear is the closest we get to a Snake Plisskin game.

Everything about Escape From New York makes the inferior sequel look more pussified! Escape From L.A. still haves good moments, but the sequel was done in the 90's so it makes sense! Escape From New York doesn't just seem to be a Sci-Fi movie, but its kinda a horror movie is some aspects of the film!

[@Tony-1971]

Most sci-fi movies have horrific things in them. They're still sci-fi though. You can't just call all the ones with no horrific bits in them sci-fi. That don't make any sense.

[@4FYTfa8EjYHNXjChe8xs7xmC5pNEtz]

What if the president is Joe Biden? 😂

[@JasonNoxid]

Escape From New York has much more darker atmosphere with everything surrounding it! Escape From L.A. is still good in most ways, but L.A. is more like an over the top action parody with bands from the 90's being part of the sound which makes it more inferior and pussified compared to what New York had to offer. Escape From New York feels more like a sci-fi survival horror with an original soundtrack and sound fx composed by John Carpenter himself. And the plot makes more sense in New York than L.A.

[@julesf.meloborges811]

What the hell do you mean by "pussified"? Did you just came up with the word and thought it would look nice, regardless if it made sense or not? L.A. was a mess from start. Carpenter is not a good action director (New York proves that), yet the movie insists on many spectacular scenes. They all fall flat. It has the wrong director and a script that is pretty much doing the same thing over again but with a more "Post-apocalyptic" feel. It just couldn't work. I blame Kurt Russell for pushing the project.
